How to Keep Your SLP Brain Fresh (Without Burning Out)

Erin Larsen of Speech Tea Season 1 Episode 34

Feeling the summer slow-down... but still want to stay sharp as an SLP? In this episode, I’m sharing practical, low-pressure ways to keep your SLP brain fresh during the summer months—without burning out. Whether you're stepping away from therapy completely or working a lighter caseload, these strategies are designed to help you feel recharged, inspired, and ready to return with energy.

We’re talking about:

  • Rest vs. stimulation: How to find the right balance
  • Creative ways to stay connected to the field (without overdoing it)
  • Tips for guilt-free rest, reflective practice, and soft professional growth
  • How I personally stay inspired during my off-seasons

This is your invitation to take a deep breath, loosen your grip on the to-do list, and trust that rest is productive.
